Miami Shores Country Club, hole 13. Photo submitted by TimGavrichGP on 03/25/2019
Do not try this course
5 hour round, weird layout, hard to follow course with the small signs.
NOT a worth the price
Very nice and golfer friendly
Nice layout, good condition, user friendly “length wise.”
Fun Track. Good Shape. Not difficult.
I was looking to squeeze in a round. Found Miami Shores with plenty of availability. Played early morning. Decent pace of play. We finished right at 4 hrs. Course was in good shape. Not a long course. All in all, fun time. One note, as we were finishing around 1:00PM, course was getting really busy (Friday afternoon) so I would suggest an early tee time if possible.
Second class citizen in my own country
Played this course exclusively for the last 4 years, great layout. Awesome course. The Canadians receive better rates than the American folks that live in USA? What is wrong with this picture? How can that happen? We, that live here should be receiving better greens fees! Just saying. Seems quite unfair to me and I’m very sure others that come to such an awesome course.
Staff outside are great and a pleasure to talk with. Inside staff not so much.
Slow Pace
Great course but pace of play is horrible. We were tracking to a 6 hour round.
Fun Course, Unhelpful Staff
First time playing the course and my wife and I enjoyed playing the round. The course layout is interesting and some larger signs might be helpful for navigating the interesting drives between a couple holes, but otherwise good condition from tee to green. The staff, however, was extremely unhelpful and acted like we were bothering them to ask questions like where is the restroom, where do I get the range balls, where is the first tee, and do you have any grab-and-go food/ snacks.
Love this course and played it many times recently but this weekend we had 2 groups in front who needed a driving range more than a golf course so very slow but no marshal to push them along and for sure no way anyone in Miami would ever think of letting people who can play golf pass through.
Great course, challenging greens
Lovely gem of a course, great layout and exciting greens and I would have no hesitation to recommend it. Cart staff were friendly and efficient but pro shop staff terrible.
Great and challenging.
MSCC is in tiptop shape. I'm a 25 handicaper and was forced to think about what club I would use and where I would hit the ball.
Check out MSCC, I Think you'll find the course fun and challenging.
Aw
Whilst I accept that this is a public facility and the course was in reasonable condition I would never recommend this place and would never go back - even if I wasn’t charged.
The course is old fashioned with a large amount of small crowned greens . The layout is confusing , the staff unwelcoming and the pace of play a total disaster , with no ranger to be seen - over 4hours to play 15 holes, by which time we had had enough and gave up.
My wife and I are good golfers and we’re put into a game with 2 hackers who took 3 air shots and 4 mulligans before they reached the ladies tee on the first. It took 15 minutes for them to get up to our drives and there was no starter or ranger to talk to. We debated whether to walk-in and ask for a refund but we didn’t want to risk loosing our place on the course and there was no one to ask and the game behind had driven and were waiting . We decided to leave our playing companions and carried on, at their suggestion without them. We then spent 4 honours waiting on every shot. It was AWFUL
